Operation

Stain removal

Do Not Delay! Attending to an accident soon after it occurs ensures the most optimal clean. Leaving it for an extended period of time may cause it to set and become permanent.

1.Blot up liquids with an absorbent cloth or paper towels. White materials are recommended because certain dyes may bleed and make the stain worse.

2.Gently scrape up any semi-solids with a spoon or spatula. Do not use a knife or other utensil with sharp edges because it could damage the carpet or upholstery.

3.If the area has dried, remove the remaining semi-solids and residue with a sweeper or vacuum.

4.Be sure to test any spot removal formulas in an inconspicuous area first. This is important as some dyes and materials could be damaged or discolored by cleaning solvents. If such a change should occur, try a different solution or call a professional.

5.If cleaning on Berber carpeting, gently run your machine over a hidden area. If no fuzzing occurs, continue cleaning in soiled area.

6a. Using the BISSELL Tough Stain PreCleaner, spray evenly over soiled area. Do not overwet. Wait 3-5 minutes. Gently work the solution by blotting area with a clean, damp, color safe cloth.

6b. CleanShot. CleanShot is an optional feature that can be used to fight tough stains. It can be used as either a tough stain pre-treat (see page 10) or can be used dur- ing the deep cleaning process itself. To use CleanShot either as a pre-treat or during deep cleaning, follow the instructions below.

A. Set Custom Clean for the desired setting.

B. Press the CleanShot button and aim the focused stream onto the stain. Allow the for- mula to soak in for 30 seconds.

C. Run the machine over the stain to extract. Repeat as needed until the stain is gone.

D. Rinse if desired.
